Having an extra usergroup on the site slows everything down (apparently) so it does do bad and it is failing to do anything. If it were a party it would have been closed by now.

I reject that argument, because a) the football fan UGs are still around and I don't think anyone actually uses them; and b) I can't believe that the site's infrastructure is so woefully bad that makes an actual difference.

The reason inactive parties should be shut down is they will inevitably win 1-2 seats which could be held by active ones.

The CT have stated that usergroups lead to a global site slowdown and I'm inclined to belive them over you. Supposedly they are MENT to be removing all the inactive usergroups

We have seen on multiple occasions that the CT are either understaffed or incompetent, and I'm pretty confident the ones who are saying this aren't the ones dealing with the technical end of the site.

Furthermore, even if that were the case, the solution is to take the CC's sub off-site, either on to a specially created forum or just Skype.

Off-site coms isn't the answer. And I'm not going to bother keeping up thsi debate. The point is that it isn't adding anything. When implemented it was sold as this great thing that will make us more realistic. But that clearly hasn't worked. It is very infrequent and barely adds a thing. Closing it makes sense at this point because it isn't valuable.

The fact of the matter is it almost certainly isn't tjr case, there will be slowdown, but insignificant, your own computer or phone will have a much, much greater effect. This is evidenced by meaningless groups such as the football groups, and the fact they don't remove vacant user groups. In reality, it's more likely a case of pure laziness due to the understaffed/incompetent nature of the people who actually have to do it.

There's a simple way to solve this issue. The CC doesn't need its own user group. Instead, a private subforum can be created, a bit like the Government one, which the CC reps can be added to.

Which requires a user group... Yje government sub works by only allowing people in certain user groups in, currently only those in the Tory, Liberal, and probably still NL usergroups
